Tell us about yourself and how many books you have written.
I write romantic books are filled with smart, sassy women, hot men who love them, and a wild assortment of family members guaranteed to try to steal the show. As of this writing, I’ve published seven contemporary romance novels.
My mission in life is to give readers emotional romantic stories and unforgettable characters, a relaxing treat for the end of the day. And if I can help them escape the laundry pile, I’m totally on board.
When I’m not writing, I can usually be found in my favorite chair doing research (code for reading romance books) or devising multiple excuses to avoid cooking, laundry, housework, and shoveling the snow. I do, however, love to shop for flowers in the spring, and I’ll spend copious hours digging in the dirt to plant them…although my marriage contract clearly stipulates that the man of the house must pull the weeds.
Happy reading!
What is the name of your latest book and what inspired it?
My latest book is titled Caught Between a Rock and a Hunka Man, book three in the Caught Between series (although the books in this series can be read in any order).
What inspired this book? I had to come up with a new story idea for a writing class and, well, maybe I’d watched too many Gilligan’s Island reruns, or perhaps it was a cold snowy day…but once these characters showed up on the page, they wouldn’t leave me alone until I wrote their story.
Do you have any unusual writing habits?
Sticky notes…on my desk, my walls, even on my computer screen.
What authors, or books have influenced you?
Jennifer Crusie and Susan Elizabeth Phillips both write with heart and humor.
What are you working on now?
I’m currently working on a super secret contemporary romance for a series of books with a group of writer friends. I’d like to tell you more about it, but then I’d have to tickle you till you swore to keep it a secret. It’s going to be romantic.
Do you have any advice for new authors?
Write one book, then write another, and then write yet another one. With every book you finish, you’ll learn more about your own voice and style, and I promise you, each book will be better than the last.
What is the best advice you have ever heard?
See the question above!
What are you reading now?
Nalini Singh’s Rock Redemption. Love it!
What’s next for you as a writer?
More romance books in my Caught Between and my Rocky Mountain series!
If you were going to be stranded on a desert island and allowed to take 3 or 4 books with you what books would you bring?
